I’ve been a summer camp counselor assistant for 4 years as of this summer. I’ve been a petsmart employee for 2 years, and I’m comfortable with almost all animals (no spiders or scorpions). I can handle wel-behaved dogs weighing up to 70 pounds. I can handle children of all ages, no more than 4 at a time. I have no maximum number of pets, so long as the owner is reasonable and fair.
Hi, my name is Desirae, and I’m a high school senior offering reliable house sitting and pet sitting services. I’m responsible, caring, and motivated to gain my first job experience while helping others feel confident their home and pets are in good hands. I have three dogs of my own Kane, Chop, and Boss who I care for every day. I make sure they are well-fed, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and enjoy time outside at the park. Taking care of them has taught me patience, consistency, and how to understand animals’ needs. Although I’m new to professional work, I’m dependable, eager to learn, and take my responsibilities seriously. I will treat your home with respect and care for your pets as if they were my own.

I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with over 3 years of hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals. I’ve regularly pet sat for friends and neighbors, including households with 9+ dogs, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets with different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I have a clean background with no criminal record, and I take safety and trust very seriously. I’m also confident in handling nervous, upset, or more challenging animals, using patience and calm energy to help them feel secure and comfortable. My goal is always to provide dependable, compassionate care so both you and your pets feel at ease.
Hi! My name is Hailey. I am 22 years old. I absolutely love animals and kids. At the moment I care for 8 adult cats and 3 kittens all of my own. I also help my mom care for her bird‚ dog and bunny. I have 2 nephews and 4 nieces plus another on the way! And I adore all of them. I love kids but I am a huge animal person although both will be cared for equally and all the same.
Hi! My name is Bella Simoes, and I'd love to get to know you and your kid(s)! I'm from Shawnee, Kansas, and I attended Saint James Academy in Lenexa. I've always loved getting to work with children, whether it's in a kid's zone at my gym or teaching swim lessons, I've enjoyed getting to engage whenever I can. I plan on going into Elementary Education as well, so getting these opportunities would be wonderful! I can't wait to meet you:).
Hello, My name is Deanne and I live in Leavenworth KS, I am 21yrs old and I love pets and kids alike!!
My experience with children starts with being the oldest of 8 children as well as nannying/ babysitting for families and friends when they need it. I also have been serving and volunteering in my church's nursery and kid hallway since I was 12! I also have experience with pets since I grew up with dogs and cats all of my life but recently I have dove into the realm of poultry/waterfowl so that's a bonus! I also have worked in a doggy daycare for a couple years so I know the difference in right and wrong behaviors/actions and I love going on walks with pets
One of my hobbies is cooking so I can cook as much food for a meal or as little for a snack! I love being outside and talking walks and doing park runs, I am not that brilliant when it comes to crafts but I can come up with some ideas to help entertain your littles
Are you looking for a reliable babysitter available and ready for anything? Skyla here!
Hello, I’m Skyla! I’m 16 years old (10th grade) although I’m 16, I’m smart, knowledgeable, helpful and kind. I’m very good with kids ever since I was 8 years old I wanted to help kids and in my future I want to be a pediatric surgeon so I’m building my resume for early childcare :)!

Hello! My name is Mary and I have about 7 years of paid childcare experience. I’m mature but I love to have fun like going to the movies, mall, zoo, carnivals and so much more. I’m not afraid of getting dirty despite being a bit of clean freak. I have reliable transportation and can drive kiddos around. I truly love kids and helping parents out. Raising children is hard work with little off time; let me help! You deserve a break and a reset without having to worry about your kiddo(s).
